A WISE PROHIBITION.

As the public are mostly aware,
for several days past printed notices
have been stuck around the town,
prohibiting the throwing of slops
and filth into the public streets. The
prohibition cmanates from the Board
Of Health, and bears the signature
of its energetic agent, Mr.. c. Il.
Reynolds. Every decent citizen
sanctions this action, and hopes to
see the prohibition rigidly enforced,
without respect to persons. The
greatest offenders against decency in
this respect hitherto, have been the
Chinese. In their part of the town,
where they have balconies overhang-
ing the sidewalks, no one can feel
secure walking along the street sides
any hour of the day or evening. He
is always in danger of receiving a
baptism of filthy soapsuds or some
thing worse. The anticipation is not
pleasant, and the actual experience
is worse. The ruin of suit of
clothes, perhaps new, and the injury
to ones feelings, are exceedingly
exasperating. Then there is the
general discomfort caused by the
stencil originating from this filth, as
also the injury to public health from
the same cause. What effect the
Board of Health's order may have
had, so far, we are unable to say,
but are quite sure that if after allow.
ing sufficient time for it to become
generally known and understood, al
offenders are promptly prosecuted
the nuisance will soon he entirely
abated, which is Il result ferventlN
desired. If we cannot have Ou
streets nicely Macadamised, as W.
should like, there is at least grount
of hope that they may be ridded o
one long-existing nastiness.

FRIDAY. MAY 27. 1887.
A MONUMENT TO MINISTERS.

About the only Government ac-
tion, for a number of years, tending
to the Improvement of the city of
Honolulu, worthy of note, was that
of the Interior Department which
Immediately followed the great fire
of little over a year ago. The
then Minister had the perception to
sec the greatness of the opportunity
afforded by the fire, and the courage
to act promptly on his own response
bility.
A large area was swept of build
ings, and the Minister issued an
order prohibiting the erection of any
permanent structures on the burnt
district, until it had been surveyed,
and fire limits fixed by the Legis-
iature which was about to meet.
Surveys were at once made, new
streets laid out, old ones widened,
grades established, etc., and bills
drafted for the Legislature, aiming
at the legalisation of the action
taken. 1t was grand opportunity
for re-arranging an important part
of the city on an improved plan,
and the opportunity was seized. The
plan was adopted by the Legisla-
ture, excepting that a proposed
street or two were Topped off, and
the fire limit reduced.
That Minister retired from Office
shortly after, and since then the
portfolio has been held in turn by
two gentlemen. What has either OF
them done to perfect the work COM
menced by their predecessor? Lite
rally and absolutely nothing. There
are the openings surveyed for new
streets, full of tree stumps, rocks,
mounds, and holes. Buildings have
been erected off the lines, and on
irregular grades, because the owners
could not so much as get the in
formation which they sought at the
Interior office, and which that Office
should have furnished them. The
district is q monument TO Ministe-
rial incapacity, inertness, or neglect.
1t is no answer for the Depart
ment to say that it has no money
so long as money can be found fol
other objects of inutility, frequently
enumerated in these columns. Nor
can Ministers be excused or their
sins of omission cxtenuated, on the
plea that they are powerless to con-
troll the disbursement of the public
funds. They should insist upon
having the control, or resign like
men. If they were possessed OF a
due measure of self-respect, this is
what they would do. If they are
the Kings responsible Ministers,
and not merely his clerks. they
should sustain the dignity of their
position, and not play the part OF
subservient tools, for the sake OF

A man named Busby shot a col
ored woman named Sullivan
through the abdomen, at Nicholia,
last Sunday evening. He demand
ed admittance to the house and be-
ing denied it, proceeded to dis
charge his revolver through the
door. He was arrested and jailed.
1t is thought that the woman may
recover.
Coroner G. H. Davis was in town
last Tuesday, and exhibited to us
the skull of the woman murdered
at Pocatello last week. The skull
of the poor woman shows every
evidence of q most brutal murder.
1t is crushed for distance of sew
eral inches above the right eye and
there are several smaller dents on
the top of the head. There is also
bullet hole in front Of the right
ear which proves that the wretch,
not content with his CHASTITY work,
and wishing to make doubly sure
of his victim, shot her probably
after she fell to the ground. The
skull will be offered in evidence at
the forthcoming trial Of her hus-
band, Alex. Woods.

Mrs. r. f. Reid on Sunday last
met with an accident serious in ma
ture, and narrowly escaped injuries
that would in all probability have
resulted fatally. She had just pre-
pared for horseback ride, and the
animal instead of starting off at
its accustomed pace, reared up and
threw its rider and then fell upon
her. She sustained severe internal
and that she was not kill
ed outright is miracle.

The other morning Jailor William
Burke, while upon his regular
rounds at the county jail, entered
the cell of VIM. Murray, who
clasped the jailor by the hand and
exclaimed: "Good bye, Billy,
good bye; I'm going" AT this
moment Burke noticed blood all
over Murray's throat, which had
the appearance of being cut from
ear to ear. Murray was immed-
lately removed to the jailor's room
and Coroner DR.. Brown and DR..
Higgins summoned. The physi-
clans arrived in about fifteen min
utes after the cut was made and
attempted to make an examina-
ton. This they were unable to do
until Murray was ironed hand and
foot. A search for the wound re-
vealed cut about one-forta of an
inch deep and less than that in
width. The wound was made with
the small blade of a pocket knife,
and about half Of the blade broke
off and stuck in the muscles of the
throat. The wound is not serious.
1t is the opinion of one somewhat
with Murray's peculiar
tiles that the bluff at suicide was
made to secure sympathy. He
declared he would make a success
of the next attempt. Murray shot
his wife in the face at Shoshone
several weeks ago.

John Madden, fireman for John
Ream of No. 551, had a narrow es-
cape while running down King
Hill last Sunday. He was out on
the pilot adjusting some flags when
he noticed a band of horses on the
track and thinking the train would
run into them, jumped from the en-
gine. One of his ankles was Sc
verely sprained and he was other
wise bruised.
VIM. Murray, who shot his wife
in this city the 23rd of last March,
will have his trial at Haley the
26th inst. Mrs. Murray is in town
from Rock Greek and will go to the
county seat next week. She has
almost entirely recovered from the
effects of her wounds. Her face is

The good people of Echo, Or. and
vicinity say they felt a distinct
shock of earthquake about day
break on Friday last. 1t very
plainly ratified the dishes and win
dows.
Hon. A. Caldwell was greatly as
tonished at the growth of our town
the past year. He could hardly be-
lieve it to be the little station he
knew last spring. If he should pay
the town a visit next year he will
be more surprised than now.
Those who contemplate locating
land in this vicinity had best be
about it. 1t will not remain vacant
long after it is learned that water
for irrigation can be had. 1t is
safe to assert that in one year from
today not foot of desirable land In
this vicinity will remain unclaimed.

For the first time in seventeen
years the prune trees will have no
fruit this season. The freeze caught
it at its most tender stage-when
the fruit was just forming-and
there are none left. Once in seven
teen years is not so bad as it might
be, and still leaves Idaho the best
prune country in the world.
Mr.. Morse, who has an apiary in
town, says many bees have starved
to death.th spring, and they are
making but little honey. He was
compelled to feed his hives to save
them. The repeated heavy frosts
this spring stopped the flow of
honey completely in flower and
bud, thus cutting off their supply
of food. All they have now to
gather from is the white clover
blossoms. The season has been un-
precedented in many respects.
Chas. Guslean, claiming to re-
present J. X. Gill & Co., Portland,
arrived at Boise on Thursday
morning last canvassing for the
International Cyclopedia. His ac-
ton while here made it evident that
he was a fraud. The Portland
house he pretended to represent is
well known here by business men
as a responsible house, and this to-
gether with the fact that was he re-
cognized by several drummers at
the time, gave greater plausibility
to his representations. He finally
borrowed sums of money from diff
ferent citizens and then disappear

light complexioned, about five feet
and six inches tall, and wears a
light-colored moustache. He was
last heard of at Caldwell.

SILVER CITY AVALANCHE.

The news of the death of Paul S.
Gordon, of Jordan Valley, was re-
ceived here on Monday last. The
manner of his death is siekening to
relate, and was follows: On the
15ht inst. he came from his ranch
to Baskerville, driving span of
Young horses attached to a buck
board; remaining at the latter place
until after dinner, he and DR.. Bel
KNAPP got into the blackboard, he
with the intention of going home,
and DR.. Belknap Of going to Mr..
Warren Sherwood's residence on the
road near the residence of the de-
ceased. When they reached Mr..
D. d. Munger's place, they stopped
and called to the latter gentleman
to come out, which he did, and DR..
Belknap got out of the blackboard.
About that time a stallion which
the deceased had tied behind the
blackboard to lead, attempted to
reach the team, when the deceased
struck at him with his whip to
drive him back. The team became
frightened, and at once began to
run down the road with the deceas-.
ed in the blackboard. They ran but
a short distance when the deceased
was thrown from the blackboard,
his left foot becoming fastened in
the spring of the vehicle as he fell.
The horses ran for about five miles,
when Messes. Shaw and Emhof
saw them, ran in ahead of them and
saw the lifeless body of Paul S.
Gordon, still fast to the blackboard,
mangled in a horrible manner, with
nearly all his clothes torn from his
body. Mr.. Gordon was 67 years
old; his funeral took place at Jor-
dan Valley on the 18th. inst, and

cAssIA COUNTY TIMES.

One of the up-riyer COW boys,
named Chris. Humble, filled his
tank with an overload of "pizen"
the other day and started in to
paint things red at the store of Ed.
Conant, on Cassia Creek. He is q
fair example of the "bad men from
Texas" Like coward, which he
is, he took advantage of the alb
sence of Mr.. Conant and scanda-
lously abused his wife, who is
cultured lady in every sense, and
beat Carley Parke,a man over sixty
years of age, over the head with a
gun for interfering in her behalf A
warrant was issued for his arrest
and before Sheriff Danner could
reach the camp where the brave,
bad. man had been stopping, he
skulked off in the willows and has
not been seen or heard Of since.
Bad luck seems to have over
taken Cassia county's oldest
vaquero, VIM. Langley, who has
scarcely recovered from the effects
of broken ankle until he is again
disabled by having his right shoul-
der dislocated. In both instances
the accidents were occasioned by
horses falling with him. His re-
cent exploit happened last Sunday
forenoon at the ranch of Keogh
Bros, on Raft river. While engag-
ed in parting out cattle his horse
fell headlong with him, and in-his
scramble to save his injured ankle
he forgot about his head and shoul-
ders, and in the fall his right
shoulder struck a stake which was
protruding several inches out of the
ground, dislocating his shoulder
and quite seriously disfguring the
stake.
